Michigan: Tragedy Hits Home with FightCPS Reader Faith Baden’s Children

In Midland, Michigan an adopted child attacked and killed Faith Baden’s son, Justin Baden, age 17, early in August, 2009. Justin and his younger siblings were removed from Faith Baden’s home by CPS and eventually adopted out to Jessica Pribbernow, a Michigan child-collector.

    Faith Baden is a liar. She lost her children because she was molesting them. They were not kidnapped she lost them because she was abusing them. The people who adopted those boys are amazing people and do not deserve the hell that faith contuines to put this family through. You Faith need to leave these people alone!

    I think Anonymous is the same piece of trash that "adopted" these boys, for the MONEY I might add. Those adopted parents are the ones doing the abusing, yet CPS wont step in now, how messed up is that?

    I have a lot of questions about the people who adopted these children. Firstly, they are far to young, in my opinion, to parent teens.

    And, the adoption took place when the adoptive mother was previously married and then re-married.

    I have many many questions.

    Also, why was there a fund established to bury Justin when apparently, the Marines handled same?

    And the boy, Paul..........what was that about?

    The adoptive parents do not pass muster with me and I thin kmight not pass muster with others.

    Faith and Kevin Baden of Michigan had no way of knowing that six years, after Michigan DHS/CPS caseworkers secretly took their children out of school as they were appearing in court to stop CPS from putting their kids into temporary foster care, that their son Justin would end up being murdered in an abusive adopted home.

    Faith Baden has five boys. Her oldest son is handicapped and is in a group home. Her other four boys, Paul, Justin, Kevin and Kody were unjustly taken away from her and her husband by the corrupt cps system in the state of Michigan. Faith and her husband Kevin are fighting to save their sons Kevin and Kody Pribbernow who are still in an abusive home in Michigan. Kody is 14 years old, and Kevin is16.

    November 7, 2003 While Faith and Kevin were appearing in court, because Michigan CPS wanted to put their children into temporary foster care, unknown to Faith and Kevin, their boys, Paul, Justin, Kevin and Kody, were being secretly pulled out of school by CPS supervisor Brian Milikin and CPS caseworker Meredith Anne Harris and placed into foster care. Faith and Kevin didn’t know what hit them.

    March 8, 2004 CPS caseworker Meredith Anne Harris started procedures for terminating their parental rights in Arenac County, MI. This paper was filed on May 19,2004. Once again, Faith and Kevin were unaware that this was taking place.

  5. Between November 7, 2003 and May 19,2004 the kids remained in foster care, and their parental rights were terminated. The boys were separated, and were in three different foster homes. Their last foster home was the home of Jessica and Steven Pribbernow Sr.
    The Pribbernows adopted the boys in 2005. Steven Jeffery Lewis was also a foster child in Jessica and Steven Prbbernow’s home for approximately five months before he was adopted and became Steven Pribbernow Jr. Steven is not biologically related to Paul, Justin, Kevin and Kody Prbbernow.

    It had been four years since Faith had seen or had any contact with her sons Paul, Justin, Kevin and Kody, when Faith received a letter from Paul in September of 2007. Where she learned Paul was in the Midland County Jail on charges of CSC against his adopted mothers two daughters. Paul had contacted his grandmother to find out how to contact his mother. In the letter Faith received from her son Paul, he told his mother about the abuse that was happening in their adopted home. Paul went on to tell Faith that his youngest brother Kody, was being abused by Jessica the adopted mother. Kody has congenital scoliosis, and has had back surgery for his scoliosis. Kody also has asthma. Paul wrote that he and his siblings were not allowed to eat when they were hungry, and that Kody was stealing food out of the cupboards and taking it to the doghouse at the back of the property to eat. Paul writes his adopted mother would not allow him to get his drivers license because she feared Paul would go home to his biological mother Faith. Paul writes that Jessica told him that she was a paid mom.

    After Faith received the letter from Paul, she and Kevin went to the Midland County Jail to see Paul in the fall of 2007. It was the first time she had seen her son in four years. Faith and Kevin visited Paul every month. On Feb 21,2008 Faith and Kevin attended Paul’s sentencing. Paul’s adopted mother Jessica spoke at the sentencing and said that Paul was an animal, that he deserved to die and that she wouldn’t have anymore-foster children in her home. Jessica brought Justin and Steven to the sentencing to see their brother go off to prison. While Kevin was trying to comfort Faith, over Paul going to prison. Faith and Kevin were walking out of the courtroom, Jessica, Joshua, Justin, and Steven came out. Justin and Faith made eye contact, he was crying as well as Faith. Justin had his fists clenched, tears in his eyes, his lower lip was quivering and Jessica screamed out at him not to look at Faith, to keep his eyes on her and to go down the staircase. Faith spoke out and said hi and I love you to Justin. Faith and Kevin got into the elevator; Jessica met them at the lobby doors, and refused to let Justin come out into the lobby until Faith and Kevin had left the courthouse. It would be the last time that Faith would see her son Justin alive.

    Yes Faith and Kevin did have the state secretly taking there kids away, because after all the state has plenty of time to waste on people who don't abuse their children, your excuses make you sound guilty as charged and sickening. Own up to the abuse.
